A member asked:

My uterus is enlarged and i have fibroids that are large also i'm have pain and my periods are longer i'll seen my physician and he recommend an hyste?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Its a good option: Large fibroids are a common cause of heavy painful bleeding. A hysterectomy removes the fibroids with the uterus and takes away the problem. Its a good option. At age 39, the ovaries are almost always left in place so that you don't need to be on hormone replacement. Other options would be uterine artery embolization, magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound and endometrial ablation.
